Job Description
Balloon Manufacturing TechnicianTucson, AZ
Company Overview
World View is a leading stratospheric technology company delivering actionable intelligence through persistent, high-altitude sensing systems.
We provide on-demand, scheduled, and historical aerial data and analytics from sensors deployed in the stratosphere, offering persistent coverage, higher resolution, and greater value than traditional aerial and space-based imagery.
Job Description
As a Balloon Manufacturing Technician, you will play a hands-on role in building the next generation of stratospheric balloon systems. You will work across equipment, materials, and production processes, supporting the full product lifecycle from development through production while helping deliver high-quality systems at scale.
Role Responsibilities
•Support the setup, operation, and continuous improvement of balloon fabrication and assembly areas.
•Help develop, document, and refine manufacturing and verification processes that support quality and scale.
•Fabricate and assemble prototype and production balloon systems with care, consistency, and attention to detail.
•Work closely with manufacturing and engineering teams to solve issues, improve productivity, and support production needs.
•Inspect work in process and finished products to help maintain high quality and identify issues early.
•Support a range of hands-on production activities, including physical tasks and other responsibilities needed to meet program goals.
Qualifications
This is a highly specialized role performed in very few places in the world, so while relevant experience is valuable, it is not essential. What matters most is attitude, curiosity, care in your work, and a willingness to learn a rare and highly technical skill. If you are hands-on, safety-minded, adaptable, and motivated to grow, we encourage you to apply.
•A strong learning mindset, positive attitude, and willingness to develop new technical skills in a highly specialized manufacturing environment.
•Hands-on experience in manufacturing, fabrication, assembly, or another practical technical environment is helpful, but equivalent transferable experience is also valued.
•Careful, safety-focused work habits, including comfort using shop tools, measuring equipment, and following clean, controlled production practices.
•Strong communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to follow instructions, raise issues, and contribute ideas for improvement.
•Ability to work with initiative, adapt in a fast-paced environment, and support changing priorities as programs evolve.
•Ability to meet the physical demands of the role, including standing, stooping, lifting materials, and performing hands-on production work safely and consistently.
•Willingness to support operational needs, including occasional overtime, weekend work, and shift work. Some travel in support of launches or mission activities may be required.
•Experience in areas such as controlled manufacturing environments, automation, stratospheric ballooning, plastic heat sealing, polyethylene film handling, textiles, or pattern making would be an advantage but not essential.
What We Offer
At World View, you will work alongside experts in emerging technology and contribute to programs that are shaping the future of high-altitude operations. We offer a comprehensive benefits package, including medical, dental, vision, and life insurance, because supporting our people is essential to doing exceptional work.
This role is also a strong entry point into a career at World View. As you build expertise in the highly specialized craft of balloon fabrication and assembly, you will have the opportunity to grow within manufacturing and explore broader career paths across the business over time.
Our Tucson workplace is designed to support collaboration, focus, and well-being, with amenities that help create an engaging and energizing environment.
We are committed to building an inclusive workplace where creativity thrives, collaboration matters, and every voice is valued. Our culture is grounded in five core pillars: Engage, Lean In, Create, Care, and Own.
Some Final Notes
The description gives you a sense of what the position involves, but it is not an exhaustive list. As our programs evolve, responsibilities may shift or expand.
At World View, we are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate belonging and diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all team members. We welcome applications from every background and life experience because we know our differences make us stronger.
If you are excited by hands-on work, motivated by learning something few people in the world know how to do, and ready to help build the future of stratospheric systems, we would love to hear from you.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
